For all intents it should have been Rev I was describing what you would think of a normal shift pattern in a regular tranny. Besides the trucks that had them had either Fleet 315's or 3176 cats with 320 hp or god help you a 3406 with 310 hp we called the trucks with those trannys the Dragon flys. You Dragged your butt up the will and flew down the other side within reason.
